Chapter 421: Chapter 421 (Vol 2) – Tension & Fear

Enormous and powerful swords formed an endless barrier.

The attacks fell fiercely and more than 200 heavenly swords disappeared under the impact. The remaining heavenly swords resisted and grew much larger, covering the spaces where the sword figures disappeared.

Massive, horrifying spatial cracks exploded, bursting the force of the void and sweeping away everything in its path, including all attacks and skills nearby. The void of the place vibrated and then calmed the surroundings, letting everyone see what had happened.

"How can they do the same technique as Yinyin and Shasha?" Mu Shen asked in astonishment, observing some heavenly swords that had not disappeared and were still in the air.

Tang Jingtian beside him also looked on blankly. Shan Qingwu was the same, wondering about these people.

How could it be that these people could do the same technique that Ling Tian had taught the two girls?

Chu Feng was also surprised in the same way but then he thought of something and felt that it should be the case.

* Swoosh... *

Suddenly, the aura throughout the place changed as it seemed to gradually increase, as if more and more spiritual Chi flooded the world and began to feel like a land suitable for cultivation.

Through the clouds in the sky crossed an imperceptible flash of lightning that disappeared instantly, as if sensing the change in this small world.

Yun Mengxin smiled slightly before continuing to maintain her serious and cold expression, sensing that Ling Tian was finally here. Although she didn't know why her spiritual connection with him was severed, Yun Mengxin felt that Ling Tian was also dealing with something much more dangerous than this situation, therefore, he seemed to have disappeared from this small world temporarily until his Soul appeared with them again.

Space once again stabilized but this time a greater tension reigned. After all, as powerful Immortal cultivators with high realms, they were still powerless as they couldn't get rid of these cultivators from a small and weak lower plane. But they also had their experiences and easily knew that if they chose to take these people as ordinary cultivators, they would be the ones to lose and even be in a much worse state. Especially those four male Great Ascension realm cultivators and the woman who seemed to have broken through and released an aura no weaker than any great expert cultivator.

The higher and more powerful one's strength, as well as high prestige and power, the more they would be afraid of dying, especially now that they were in a delicate situation where their injuries were very serious and they had to restrain themselves from aggravating them and being in a much worse state. Their energies and strength were also weak, the result of having gone through a horrible place or situation and barely surviving.

The enemies looked tensely at each other, not daring to be the first to stand out and get an unanticipated result. Each also preferred to keep their energy reserves and continue to heal. Besides they also had to endure the slight suppression of the Heavens and Earth that could increase as long as they did not try to force their powers and increase their strength.

Finally, no one dared to underestimate these lower plane cultivators. The strength displayed by each of them was not what an ordinary cultivator could show. These people could clearly jump over the ranks to fight.

So, the cultivator who had previously executed the technique where he summoned a castle and expelled a strange gas which could erode everything, stepped forward and executed the same technique again. They did not expect that these Great Ascension state cultivators could have great strength that could be comparable almost against someone in the Human Immortal realm.

The others prepared their techniques but wavered in the process, as if they were really hesitating whether to continue attacking these people. For, they seemed to have a feeling of a pair of eyes watching them from a distance, as if death itself was lurking behind them!

The more the seconds passed, the more they felt fear and survival instinct fill their bodies, feeling the breath of destruction upon them.

An imperceptibly ominous pressure loomed over them. Even Mo Ling and Mo Leng could not help but feel this fear and carefully released their spirit senses, searching for any other cultivators in the surroundings. It would be really troublesome if a powerful cultivator arrived.

Then, once again, the strange pressure exuded from the castle began to spread over the others. The strange gas that seemed to even corrode the ground and so on seemed like a mysterious mist that one would be trapped in at any moment. Even the heavenly swords nearby began to be corroded, as if the cultivation essence in them was being devoured by something!

Hao Zhentian frowned and sent more cultivation essence flowing out. Then his own heavenly swords glowed and became smaller swords, concentrating energy and resisting erosion more.

Other skills were released again. Spears and swords flashed in the sky, gathering terrifying force as they rippled the space around them. All concentrating before being thrown, waiting behind the castle figure in the sky.

"What are you waiting for!" Mo Leng's angry and slightly nervous voice was quickly heard. That feeling that there was a wild beast hiding and would come out at any moment was starting to worry him.

He was even thinking whether to attack or not, but he didn't dare to take a step!

Yet, most of them still showed hesitation as they continued. Each of them felt that something was watching them and the more time passed, the more intense that gaze became; it was as if the gates of death were being felt more and more near!

What was going on?

Xuanyuan Ling noticed the strange behavior of these arrogant and despicable Immortals. It was as if they were now beginning to show nervous expressions and even a hint of fear for the first time. She also began to sense a strange energy approaching from afar.

"Something is coming..." Ying Chen whispered as he continued to circulate his cultivation essence. His intuition was also telling him that something big was approaching towards them, but he couldn't see what it is!

"It should probably be related to these women." Shin Wei answered Ying Chen's question as he watched out of the corner of his eye at the women who kept giving them surprise.

Ying Chen and Sun Xiang watched the group of Yun Mengxin and the others more closely, noticing that they were now showing expressions full of confidence and calmness, even down to a bit of sneer and disdain when before they had clearly seen that they were in a worse emotional state.

The sadness and pain in their expressions at the sight of that Remnant Spirit could not be faked, so it was strange that they were now so calm, as if what happened a few moments ago was not real.

"Their impetus will probably end with their next attacks, so we have to deal with this. If they have any trouble, we have to continue to protect them."

Hao Zhentian said resolutely, looking at the imposing castle and the countless martial skills behind it. Although the might of these Immortals was clearly beginning to surpass them, they still did not show desperate expressions.

His energy surged a little higher and reached the peak of his current strength in an instant!

This was almost all the might he could expel at this moment!

Ying Cheng, Shin Wei and Sun Xiang similarly surged their energies, driving their forces to the limit!

Hao Zhentian had seen through Yun Mengxin and the other four women who practiced some kind of special technique and obviously allowed them to increase their strength at this moment. Although he did not know exactly what kind of technique this was, Hao Zhentian was sure that the remaining energy in them was temporary and would dissipate in the next moment.

Hao Zhentian's thinking was correct. There was only a trace of Ling Tian's force left in Yun Mengxin and the others, enough for the next attack before this amazing event ended.

Yun Mengxin narrowed her eyes and flowed her cultivation essence. She could sense that Ling Tian was coming, but she could also sense that there was something else about him, as if he was fighting against some kind of pressure in his way!

The pressure force somehow reminded her of the suppression of the Heavens and Earth she had been targeting when she broke through and wanted to raise her cultivation base to the top.

Her sword flashed, shaking violently as if it wanted to break the mysterious shackles on it. The cultivation essence flowed rapidly, condensing her energy and preparing her power.

Fear gradually grew in all the cultivators before finally releasing their techniques, taking the risk to act.

* Swoosh! *

The amount of terrifying force that burst out were directed towards Hao Zhentian and the others.

Before the women could move, the heavenly swords expanded and formed a retaining wall, receiving the overwhelming majority of the attacks!

However, the strange purple gas quickly began to corrode these heavenly swords and dissipating them instantly!

The horrible pressure of this gas not only affected everyone, but it even seemed to affect the attacks as well, causing the heavenly swords to move at a slower speed and decrease in power, negating any kind of skill.

Ying Cheng and Shin Wei flowed their energies, holding their swords. Quickly, most of the heavenly swords that formed the barrier in front of them soon became smaller, covering less range but concentrating to the utmost in different spaces!

* Boom! *

When the attacks fell they impacted right at the place where the heavenly swords gathered and concentrated. The impact force almost managed to destroy all the heavenly swords that had gathered together, but in the end they couldn't break through.

But the next moment, everyone was shocked when they noticed that the few heavenly swords that did not dissipate emitted an icy cold aura, with what appeared to be tiny shards of crystals on their surfaces. They instantly realized that these heavenly swords were formed of ice!

Sun Xiang summoned his own nearly invisible heavenly swords and shot them out in a single row, heading towards the incoming attacks.

But Hao Zhentian immediately sent out a slash with his sword as well!

The slashing wave headed towards the attacks that came next, as if it wanted to add more power and weight with Sun Xiang's attack, when suddenly, a heavenly sword formed from the energy wave and surged ahead of Sun Xiang's heavenly swords and flickered in the face of the attacks. A fierce lightning exploded and the next moment, dozens of swords made of fire exploded and expanded, trying to burn everything in their path!

The mysterious purple gas also seemed to be affected as it seemed to want to dissipate!

Sun Xiang flowed his energy and the heavenly swords increased their speed and swiftly crossed between the gaps Hao Zhentian's heavenly swords had made, reaching towards the Immortals in the blink of an eye.

* Boom! *

The heavenly swords had become invisible before they arrived, surprising most of them. Then, dozens of swords flickered as soon as they appeared in front of several cultivators suddenly, bursting out and creating a sea of fire and lightning!

"Arghh!"

Screams of pain and fury spread among the sea of fire and lightning, proving that they had been struck by it!

When the sea of fire disappeared, several of them were completely injured, while others were still safe, it seemed.

However, this shocked everyone present.

What kind of ability and strength was it?

Lan Yin and Qing Sha were surprised. Although they were still learning how to handle this amazing technique, they never imagined that heavenly swords could be used in such a way!

Everyone was sure that these guys were clearly not ordinary cultivators, but now no one dared to say that these men could not threaten their lives. Several immortal cultivators had died in a single attack!

In a single shot and wave of attack, they managed to kill more than 10 of them...

If the Immortals were now having trouble dealing with them, they now really felt that they were in a very serious situation. After all, these mortal cultivators already presented a real threat to them.

The tension reached its peak when finally no one moved or tried to unleash a second attack. Not even Mo Ling and Mo Leng, who were the most powerful said anything. Their backs were completely filled with cold sweat, beginning to feel submerged in worry and despair.

The castle emitting the strange gas dissipated and disappeared instantly. The black-robed cultivator took the artifact in his hand, but it did not stop shaking at all. His back was also filled with a cold sweat!

Everyone present soon began to show shivering in their bodies. Their foreheads sweating as they unconsciously tried to hide their energies, as if they wanted to make themselves invisible.

At once, their gazes turned away from them and looked in another direction, but they did not return their gazes, as if they really did not dare.

Hao Zhentian, Ying Cheng, Shin Wei and Sun Xiang raised their eyebrows as they looked in one direction. They couldn't help but be surprised.

Yun Mengxin, Tang Wanying, Zhang Xinya, Mu Shuiruo and Long Yuyin smiled with joy and comfort when they also looked in such a direction.

A person wearing a striking Dragon mask appeared in the distance, slowly approaching. But in spite of that everyone could see him clearly.

In his right hand he carried a Spear, while in his left hand he held a Dagger. His aura seemed so sharp and wild while exuding a fierce and horrible feeling, as if the eyes of that mask really were alive and a true fierce Dragon was looking at them.
